DRAGON MODELS ARMOR COLLECTION

Historical Note:    Dragon Armor is following up its earlier release of a 1/72 scale Kfz.70 6x4 truck with a second version. This type of vehicle served throughout WWII after mass production commenced in 1933. A total of about 7,000 trucks were produced up till 1942. This 6x4 vehicle was powered by an air-cooled 3.308-liter flat-four engine. The horizontal engine gave rise to the truckÌ_åÇÌ_å«s distinctive sharply sloped nose, and also to its nickname Ì_åÇÌ_ÌåBoxerÌ_åÇÌ_̱. The truck was used for all kinds of purposes, and it was commonly employed for towing light artillery pieces such as the 3.7cm Pak 35/36 antitank cannon. However, DragonÌ_åÇÌ_å«s new item shows the truck in its Kfz.70 Personnel Carrier configuration. The fully built-up 1/72 scale miniature incorporates full detail both above and below the chassis. For example, the wheels and independent coil spring suspension are masterfully represented. The Kfz.70 Personnel Carrier is finished in a whitewash camouflage scheme so commonly encountered during winter on the Eastern Front. This scheme has been carefully brushed onto the truck, giving it a realistically worn look. This winterized Dragon Armor item is an excellent representation of the 6x4 truck that was a workhorse of the German military during WWII, and itÌ_åÇÌ_å«s a fine companion to Dragon ArmorÌ_åÇÌ_å«s growing range of German soft-skin vehicles.
